          115 T.C. 293, 298 (2000), affd. 32 Fed. Appx. 278 (9th Cir.                 
          2002):                                                                      
                    Consistent with section 6601(e), the Court does                   
               have jurisdiction to redetermine statutory interest                    
               where a taxpayer has properly invoked the Court’s                      
               overpayment jurisdiction pursuant to section 6512.  See                
               Barton v. Commissioner, 97 T.C. 548, 554-555 (1991).                   
               In Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. & Subs. v. Commissioner, 110                
               T.C. 291 (1998), we held that the Court had                            
               jurisdiction under section 6512 to review the                          
               taxpayers’ claim that they had overpaid statutory                      
               interest for the years in issue where the Commissioner                 
               had rejected the taxpayers’ request pursuant to section                
               6402(a) to offset the tax deficiencies (and interest)                  
               for the years before the Court against the taxpayers’                  
               overpayments for earlier years. * * *[11]

          (“Respondent concedes that this Court has jurisdiction under                
          section 6512(b) to determine an overpayment based upon                      
          petitioner’s claim that it overpaid underpayment interest.

               X Corp overpaid interest by virtue of its entitlement                  
               to a zero interest rate on underpayments for the years

               11See Goettee v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2003-43, where we            
          observed:                                                                   
               Section 6512(b) provides, inter alia, that if a                        
               taxpayer properly invokes our overpayment jurisdiction                 
               under section 6512(b), then we have jurisdiction to                    
               determine the amount of the taxpayer’s overpayment.                    
               This jurisdiction under section 6512 also permits us to                
               redetermine a taxpayer’s statutory interest.  Lincir v.
